Imagine a long road trip with another fly fisher. You are both a bit long in the tooth and thus can scan back over the years of angling experience. Inevitably the conversation turns to hatches and fish stories. Now imagine that your traveling companion is none other than Charlie Meck, famous fly tier , hatch matcher and author of more than ten books on trout, their habits and what they eat.
In " Memory Rising" that is just what Charlie does. He scans back over the riffles and pools of his fishing experience. From the storied trout waters of eastern PA to the southeast, southwest , Rockies, Canada and New Zealand the author remembers hatches as varied as tricos and stone-flies. In twenty three chapters he accounts his fishing days with other famous anglers and just fishing pals. Victories and defeats, good days and bad. The reader will find that airlines always deliver Charlie to his destination but often neglect his luggage. He hates snakes, tippy canoes and deep canyons but will brave them all for the promise of a good day on the water.
Memory Rising is a pleasant trip and you will learn a lot along the way.
